Which graph shows the correct relationship between kinetic energy and speed?
Mamont248 [21]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = 1/2mV^2

From the formula above, we can deduce that kinetic energy is proportional to the square of speed. That is,

K.E = V^2

Graphically, the relationship isn't linear but a positive exponential. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

In a hydroelectric power plant, water flows from an elevation of 400 ft to a turbine, where electric power is generated. For an
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

V=3.475ft^3/s=3.48ft^3/s

Explanation:

We have here values from SI and English Units. I will convert the units to English Units.

We hace for the power P,

P= 100kW \rightarrow 100kW*(\frac{737.56ft.lbf/s}{1kW})

P= 73.7*10^{3}ft.lbf/s

we have other values such h=400ft and  \gamma= 62.42lb/ft^3 (specific weight of the water), and 0.85 for \eta

We need to figure the flow rate of the water (V) out, that is,

V=\frac{P}{\gamma h \eta_0}

Where \eta_0 is the turbine efficiency, at which is,

\eta_0 = \frac{P}{\gamma Vh}

Replacing,

V=\frac{73.7*10^{3}}{62.42*400*0.85}

V=3.475ft^3/s

With this value (the target of this question) we can also calculate the mass flow rate of the waters,

through the density and the flow rate,

m=\rho V\\m= 3.475*1.94 \\m=6.7415 slugs/s

converting the slugs to lbm, 1slug = 32.174lbm, we have that the mass flow rate of the water is,

m= 217lbm/s

What is the amount of thermal energy that can be stored in an object depends on?
77julia77 [94]
Thermal energy is the total energy of all the molecules in an object. The thermal energy of an object depends on three things: 4 the number of molecules in the object 4 the temperature of the object (average molecular motion) 4 the arrangement of the object's molecules (states of matter).

Hope this helps
